"A pleasant morning to all Esempians family!" The Captain soared as the crowd roared with her. Today is the day of the Writing Competition and the start of the Esempi High Intramural Week. Staff, college and high school students were all spread throughout the High School Department grounds as the Captain Puffy said her opening remarks signifying that it is officially the start of the awaited event. Since Intramural Week let students be themselves, students were freely wearing outfits under the dress code policy and some even had different hair colors dyed to prepare for this event. The new students, with the exception of the famous six and Tommy, were even surprised they could do that for the event. Colorful banners were lined up, different food stands were placed in their assigned area, the room where the book fair is held is in the back hall, the school band played instruments when eight o'clock hits the clock and overall chaotic but majestic for students like Tubbo.
Tubbo Underscore and Ranboo Beloved accompanied by Freddie Badlinu and Aimsey Teevee and a bunch of other people were standing on a shaded part of the school grounds where students usually ate with their friends whenever they felt like it. The group chose to stand here and wait for the remarks to finish because it has a clear view of the stage a few blocks from them and it will semi protect them from the sunlight and hot weather. As the students and staff waited patiently and some, begrudgingly, they settled in a looming silence with Professor Captain Puffy only the one speaking loudly thanks to the microphone used. Ranboo and Aimsey were talking quietly (some students are too considering it is boring to hear speeches that will take hours of their time) while Freddie, a freshman who they got acquainted with pretty quickly after Math class. Tubbo, on the other hand, was looking at a group of people everyone knew and some even envied. Drista Wastaken, Justin Deo Time, Wisp Exe, Luke OrSomething (honestly what's his last name?), Bitzel Bay and last but not the least, Purpled Bedwars.
Oh how Tubbo wish to fucking nuke them.
But that's really not what he's looking at. In fact, he's looking at the Craft that's been hanging around the famous six ever since they came to the school for the first day of class. Thomas Innit Craft.
The class population has noticed the Craft being close friends with the six. Some quickly spread rumors that he's their childhood friend or he's flaunting his riches to be friends with them. Some even reacted more negatively than just spreading rumors. Tubbo hates every single one of them. Them talking shit about his bestfriend makes him want to bomb them with nukes. However, it quieted down when Deo, the apparent leader of the squad vocally expressed his point of view with sniding comments. Drista openly showed his disinterest to the topic and disinterest towards the girls who spread the same rumor about his brother's boyfriend. Not only did they attack George for getting Dream's attention but for Tommy for having the same reasons but in a platonic manner with the six made Drista angry and won't hesitate to spread rumors but this time, it's speaking truth towards the girls.
Tubbo has to salute her for that.
But not only from both of them, the rest of the six showed a protective front to the public when they tried to harass Tommy in any way. It's an outspoken rule for the famous six that no one, absolutely no one, will hurt one of theirs. That being, Tommy is their honorary seventh member and is under their protection. That sent goosebumps to him and everyone else to hear that when Luke who everyone knows to be a sweetheart said that to all, himself.
Everyone also took notice of the fact that Tommy, a Craft, was friends with Dream and his own group of friends that his very own brothers loathed. Loathes may be an overstatement but it is a word that describes their relationship, nonetheless. Tubbo didn't even know if he should envy Tommy or envy his new friends. He doesn't know if Wilbur even knew this. Tubbo sighed.
Looking back at the six, they seem to be in a quite serious conversation seeing as the look on their faces. What could their conversation be? Tubbo shakes his head, probably a conversation he couldn't understand. Probably some princely things that rich students could understand seeing as Tubbo, himself, is not that rich compared to the Wastakens and even the Crafts but still wealthy enough to be classified as one. He saw how Tommy giggled at something Bedwars whispered to his ear and how he smacked the other playfully while dragging Bay to their mess. It made his stomach churn.
